Derry in Northern Ireland has been recently awarded City of Culture status 2013. Impressed by the success of Liverpool’s own Capital of Culture Year 2008 in raising the international profile of the city and stimulating the growth of ‘new economy’ business – leisure, digital, cultural and creative – it is sending a ‘high-powered’ delegation to learn from our success.
This delegation will consist of marketing, economic development and creative and digital sector enablers and they are keen to understand from businesses and entrepreneurs how Capital of Culture and the growth of knowledge-based businesses interlock (the one fuelling the other).
As part of their schedule, Liverpool Vision will be hosting an early evening networking event on Monday 15th November at Parr Street Studios (Studio 2) from 6pm-8pm. Liverpool Vision would very much like to invite young, creative and digital entrepreneurs to join them for drinks and nibbles, to meet members of the delegation and to network together.
